Host Family

We have had the privilege to be a host family for two boys and a chaperone this weekend. They are part of Children of the World - International Children's Choir. They arrived Thursday afternoon and will be performing at our church tomorrow morning.

Destiny is 9, from Uganda, and Jeremiah is 11, from the Philippines. Auntie Carla, the chaperone, is also from the Philippines. All three of them have been great to have over the past few days. Our family has grown to love them and will miss them when they go.

We have been able to do quite a few things with them: see Alvin and the Chipmunks at the movies, kickball at the park, backyard football and soccer, Lego and tinker toy construction, card making, story time, Santa Claus' arrival on the fire truck, say nightly prayers together, and sharing meals together.

It's been a blessing having them in our home. We are praying they are a blessing to the congregation in the morning and continue to have safe traveling mercies as they travel the USA.
